Re: P3D 4.5 Crashing

By any chance do you use Active Sky for P3D? I had similar issue with crashes when changing settings ( not just display settings) and have not had a single one since i stopped using ASP4 for weather.

Re: Kernelbase.dll crash

I had also been experiencing KernelBase.dll crashes after upgrading from 4.4 to 4.5. I ended up reinstalling P3D but still got them. They seem to have gone away now and the only things i did was delete the Prepar3d.cfg file and let P3D rebuild a new one, and deleted the Shaders folder and allowed th...

Re: SimConnect not working?

Hi! I am running on a single PC and therefore believe that I do not require a SimConnect.xml file. I have been told that it is only required for a server. If this is not true, perhaps you could send a copy of your file to me at speedbird747@ntlworld.com. Many thanks, Richard In that case no need fo...

Re: SimConnect not working?

Can you copy and paste the contents of your SimConnect.xml file in to a message to start trouble shooting? I had the same issue and it turned out the SimConnect.xml was slightly incorrect.

Are you running the sim and addons on the same computer or over a network?

Re: Adding to SimObjects.cfg

Thanks,

It turned out to be the editor i was using. Used the default windows notepad and all was fine.

I never knew about the command line option so that will be good info to file away.

Adding to SimObjects.cfg

The only aircraft remaining in that menu are the ones in my P3D V4 Addons folder ( A2A aircraft). [Entry.11] Title=AI Aircraft P...

Re: Add Ons consistently asking to load on start

Thanks Elaine, I had installed the A2A C172 (closest and most accurate rendition of the model i am flying IRL) and the Orbx Objectflow for the NZ North Island scenery. I was loading P3D as admin. I had deleted the add-ons.cfg in the APPDATA folder but didn't realise there was one in the PROGRAMDATA ...

[RESOLVED] Add Ons consistently asking to load on start

When starting P3D i am being asked to start two addons that i have installed in the documents folder every time. This never used to happen and once i approved them they would load fine but after updating the Orbx Objectflow i am now getting this request. Is there any way to stop this?

Are you testing it on the ground? Spoilers wont deploy on the ground. Try it again in the air.

Re: Message on closing PP3D v4.1

I have the same issue. I went as far as uninstalling P3D completely, removing all folders and clearing the registry and then doing a full clean install. No addons at all and clean P3D V4.1 and i get the same issue of the program crashing when closing it.

Apart from that it runs beautifully.

Scrolling text now at bottom of screen - FSUIPC

I have a weird issue where the green scrolling text bar moved itself down from the top of my screen to the very bottom. 3It is not like it did it instantly but each session the text bar dropped a little lower until now where it is firmly wedged at the bottom. This is not a huge issue but is there an...

Re: Bad Elevation Problems with ORBX NZ Both Islands

It is most likely your scenery layering causing it. I have NZNI and NZSI loaded with no issues at any of the airfields mentioned. I'm at work at present but when i get home i will check the details but what solved a lot of issues for me was this website https://flightsimeindhoven.wordpress.com/p3dv4...

Re: Unable to load through exe.xml

Regarding VFXCentral Have you conformed if VFXCentral Launches with Prepar3D by checking your Task Manager ? Yes, VFX Central loads and runs fine. Regarding SPAD Is this correct <Path>F:\SPAD.neXt.exe</Path> ? It looks to me you are missing a folder Path Like this maybe <Path>F:\ SPAD \SPAD.neXt.ex...
